For an HTPC, what would be the ideal input device to use?

I am either looking at getting a 10" mini wireless keyboard with built in mouse or a wireless mouse controller (the latter using windows onscreen virtual keyboard.

I am using to play divx movies, web surfing and the occasional video game (rarely). I am close enough I could plug in a usb keyboard when necessary.

I like the idea of the mini keyboard, but I think it would be a hassle when just using it watch movies (and pausing to go to the bathroom).

I also will use it to watch episodes I missed that are stored online, like my heroes (nbc.com – blows my mind that they keep the whole episode online as decent resolution)

How can I start a Facebook group where campus members can leave comments to be published in campus newspaper?

I’m the new Editor-in-Chief of the campus newspaper at Concord University, and I want to start an online group where anybody with an @concord.edu email address can leave short comments about the newspaper and campus issues so that we can publish them in our issues every week. What would be the best way to go about starting an online "vent line" kind of blog on Facebook where only people with campus email addresses can leave comments?

Can I make the blue header at the top of MySpace transparent?

The MySpace "Title Header" at the very top of the page (where the ad is) is now blue and I cant see the top of the picture that is my background. On the preview, that area is transparent except for the advertisement itself. Is that something I can do on my page?


What happened to the RAM upgrade?

My computer was having some problems so my uncle took it and uninstalled then reinstalled windows xp. Before he did this, i had a RAM upgrade and a better graphics card put in. Now the graphics card works, but my computer doesn’t have the extra RAM. I don’t know anything about computers. What happened and is there something I can do to fix it, or do I just have to bring it in to the shop?


Does keeping a laptop with a lithium-ion battery always plugged in hurt the battery?

I know lithium-ion batteries run for a certain amount of charge-discharge cycles, but I don’t know if any cycles occur while the battery is fully charged and plugged in.
